Note di degustazione
Sourced primarily from Niederkirchen and Ruppertsberg, this large seven-lot blend entirely from fruit that reached Spätlese must weights registers 12.7% alcohol, surprisingly high for its vintage and generic status. Sweaty, salty notes on the nose translate into a sappy and saliva-inducing palate impression. Flavors of white peach, lemon and toasted grains, in conjunction with total dryness and palpable lees enrichment, make for a rather Burgundian impression. Severe but fascinating, penetrating and refreshing, this will be intriguing to follow in bottle, although I have offered a very conservative prognosis.

Production of 50,000 bottles. RS 0.8 g/l. Blend of seven different parcels of what is effectively Spätlese trocken – though that term is not stated on the label, as per the VDP rules. Regal perfume, floral and limey, slaty and saline. Persistent, pure fruit with lovely clarity and polish. (RH)
